Once in a while, we read a book that changes our life and we feel the need to tell every person in the world about this book; this was mine. This is a book filled with change, philosophy, obstacles and joy and Donald Miller really captured the parallel of beauty and struggle in "A Million Miles in a Thousand Years."

I’ve never heard of this but I love the description. The book that changed my life is Can’t Hurt Me by David Goggins. This book just spoke to me in such a profound way. But based on your description I’m definitely excited to read this 💜 I love that idea of pushing to be better it sounds like a really good read ☺️
Oh you know, I have never given Goggin's a chance because of all the memes of him but I will definitely check it out! What was your favourite part of the book?
That's great i have also been reading Cant hurt me and i think its quite interesting so far and i do use some stuff i read there. It is a good read : )
Definitely going to check out the book!! thank you. great to see you share such personal stuff with us. thank you!
AND I AGREE, the easy route out is a less fulfilling one!! great to hear this advice
Possibly one of my favourite videos yet. Loved the clips from Italy buzzing to go. Mindfulness is all about being in the moment and I’ve definitely learned this (albeit I took way longer than you to realise) x
I love that you always speak genuinely from your heart. Love your videos, Lucy.
Thank you so much for your kindness 😌
Thanks for the recommendation and for such an articulate video, will definitely check out the book now, thanks:)
you are so articulate with your thoughts and thank you for the recommendation! will definitely read the book :-)
Very inspiring video, thank you!
Hi Lucy It has been a while since your last video, so good to see you back, great review of the book and absolutely interesting book
Hey! I was actually a bit sick lately and my city has this huge festival with explosions and fireworks so I didn’t want to film incase anyone got worried for me haha!
I hope you read the book and enjoy it :)
Ah it's the best feeling when you read a book and it just RESONATES with the INNER PARTS of your SOUL. I experienced it with The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck. I actually think that also covers a lot of the things you talked about in this video, so I think it's a book you would enjoy as well if you have not read it yet 😊
Mark Manson is such a good writer because it feels like he is just talking to a friend, what a great book you're right :)
That is a big ass pillow you’re in front of. Love your videos and will check out the book!
hi lucy! I just wanted to say that I simply love your channel and your content C:
Ahhh thank you Ana🥹🥹
Hello, Lucy. You are just amazing. Thank you for this motivational video. Hugs 💛
Hugs right back at you 😌
@@LucyAlllan I got accepted to Glasgow University for my master's degree. I hope we will meet next year ☺️
This sounds alright! I am at that point where I don't want to be procrastinating life by reading self-help books in the hope something will be fixed once I finish the book. But this one sounds like one that could genuinely help a heap of people!
The one that helped me the most, having said that, was 'your erroneous zones' by wayne dyer. It was one my therapist recommended to me, and I'm glad she did. I read it while i was going through the therapy journey with her (our therapy wasn't based around the book, but I grabbed it and read it as extra), and this turned out to be golden combo for me. I don't think it's a book that'll work for everyone, but it did for me. :)
This video isn't weird at all, it's insightful, heart-warming and incredibly inspiring. I really mean it. And yes, I'm definitely gonna be reading this book in the next few years, to state it clearly.
A little personal addition: The book that revived reading for me was Beyond Order - 12 More Rules For Life by Jordan B. Peterson. I have been interested in his thoughts and talks for month and finally decided to explore his newest book. It took me month to comprehend it (partly because the English is quite rich and extensive for a German teenager like me), but I finished it earlier this year. I don't agree with every single viewpoint of Jordan Peterson (not just related to the book) and found some passages to be rather exhausting to follow, but the sheer richness of intriguing thoughts and stories in this particular work is astonishing and has had quite a big impact on me (though I have to reread some chapters to fully understand everything completely).
Right know there are so many books I want to read in the next few month and years, mostly works by Dostoevsky, Remarque and Lessing. I'm struggling to take enough time for reading every day, but I really wanna do this.
One thing I love about Jordan Peterson is he excites my mind to think. I am a critical thinker by nature but it has helped me to dive deeper into discovering myself and being OK with who I am. I think he inspires many people to open their eyes wide to life.
@@inspiringsimple He surely does that, exactly!
Inspiring
I appraciate that for video :)
Marvellous !
So nice of you thanks! :)
I enjoyed watching this video. I'm watching this in a timely period of my life where I think I'm finally realizing I've been using avoidance as a coping strategy to not do the things I thought I would have done by now in my life. I'm slowly working through this, I'll check out the book but thanks for sharing your favorite quotes :)
Also a lot of time avoidance can be subconscious, as in my case, and can potentially reduce positive experiences while increasing negative ones.
Yes let me know if you read it!
@@LucyAlllan I'll let you know :)
Wow! and it was published in 2009!? Can't believe I haven't heard of it. I'll start reading!
Buen video! ✌🏻 🤗
Gracias 🎉
Sigues en España? 🇪🇸 🗺
Hi Lucy,
I don’t have social media either. Do you feel like you have FOMO on other peoples lives (friends)? Also, with a RUclips channel, do you feel like you still get enough viewers without social media?
Love this video! Going to buy this book!!
Hello. Where have you been? Thank you for this beautiful video. See you.
I was sick for a week so I took time off to rest 😌 back now!
I read this book based off your recommendation and really enjoyed it! Makes me want to go hike Machu Picchu! Do you have other inspiring book suggestions that are similar to this book?
Ah I’m so happy you liked it, best book I’ve ever read! I’m currently reading “story worthy” by Matthews Dicks. The point is to be taught storytelling but there’s great anecdotes in it and he gives a lot of wisdom for conversations :)
Hii Lucy. I hope ur doing great. Congrats for the 50k. I wanna recommend u a book which is in my top 5. Name of the book is Exhalation by Ted Chiang. He's also scriptwriter of the movie Arrival(movie is about language). I deeply loved the book and the movie. I hope when u have some time you can read and watch it.
I'll check it out, can you get it on Amazon? Thank you Mustafa
@@LucyAlllan Yes Lucy, you can find it on Amazon. Good luck.
❤❤❤Your videos are beautiful beautiful words you are beautiful
🧡
Would you move back to your hometown? Love your videos and really proud you’re still off Instagram
I don’t think I would move back to my hometown ever probably! Feel like I’m a bit disconnected from it now.
As for Instagram, it’s one year this month since I left it😅 are you without it too?
@@LucyAlllan I get you girl. Yes I have deleted my account and I’ve never felt happier. I’ve recently been on holiday and I did get the urge to post but what for? To be validated by people I hardly know. Do you ever get tempted to post your adventures?
First love your videos
Thank you :)
the cover art is a bike wheel what does it have to do with cycling
I guess you could analyse it like "Life is this never-ending wheel of struggle and joy" or how moments come and go
I read CookBook for tasty food also stay safe and enjoy life
lovely :)
@@LucyAlllan No problem don't give up on life btw 😁
Maybe you should stream on Twitch.I think that would be a experience.
Chess Streams incoming
Lucy, hello! Are you still without social media? If so, do you intend to come back?
If not... which app/site do you use to keep up to date with the news?
It’s been one year now and I don’t intend on coming back ! And I just keep up with the news via RUclips channels like FrankDeFranco or the guardian :)
OMG! Has anyone ever told you that you look super similar to the Friends character "phoebe buffay"? 😂
Wow your paleness looks amazing🙃
You are my internet crush..
Lucy you're a chess player ?! Can we play ?
Omg I would love to but I’m afraid I am the worlds worst player so you would beat me in 5 moves!
@@LucyAlllan You may learn much more from a game you lose than from a game you win. You will have to lose hundreds of games before becoming a good player and remember that every chess master was once a beginner.
